Wordle Solver

Enter what the game has told you — the green letters in place, the yellows that are in the word somewhere, the grays that are out — and see every answer that still fits, most likely first.

How it works

The solver filters 8,636 five-letter dictionary words by your three clue types: a word must match every green letter in its exact position, contain every yellow letter somewhere, and contain none of the gray letters. Survivors are ranked by letter frequency — how common each of their letters is in that position across the whole dictionary — so everyday words like arose float above rarities like xylyl.

Worked example: after a first guess leaves A green in position 2, R yellow and C, N, E, S gray, the pattern _a___ with yellow r and gray cnes narrows the dictionary from 8,636 words to 92, headed by party, parry and tarry. Type exactly that above to see it.

Frequently asked questions

Is using a Wordle solver cheating?

It narrows the field; you still choose the word and play the game. Many players use one only when stuck on guess five or six — your streak, your rules.

Why is a gray letter sometimes ignored?

If a letter shows both gray and green/yellow in the same guess, the letter IS in the word — the gray only caps how many copies there are. This solver ignores such a gray instead of wrongly banning the letter, which is the most common cause of 'no results'.

How is 'most likely' decided?

By letter-position frequency in the dictionary: a word built from letters that commonly sit in those positions ranks above one with rare placements. It is a statistical nudge, not a peek at Wordle's answer list.

Can I unscramble a rack of letters instead?

Yes — the companion Word Unscrambler finds every word a set of letters can make, with Scrabble scores.
